GMC TopKick 2007, Owner'S Manual, Page: 64 / 430

A rear seat is a safer place to secure a
forward-facing child restraint. Never put a
rear-facing child restraint in the right front
passenger’s seat unless the airbag is off.
Here is why:
{
CAUTION:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint
can be seriously injured or killed if the
passenger’s airbag inflates. This is
because the back of the rear-facing child
restraint would be very close to the
inflating airbag. Do not use a rear-facing
child restraint in this vehicle unless the
passenger’s airbag has been turned off.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
Even though the airbag off switch is
designed to turn off the passenger’s
frontal airbag, no system is fail-safe,
and no one can guarantee that an airbag
will not deploy under some unusual
circumstance, even though it is turned off.
We recommend that rear-facing child
restraints be transported in vehicles with
a rear seat that will accommodate a
rear-facing child restraint, whenever
possible.
If you need to secure a forward-facing child
restraint in the right front static seat or the
right front bench seat, always move the
passenger seat as far back as it will go.
